III. RESULTS
The following results show the comparison of voice and
network quality performance which will reflect the overall
successful of the VoIP system in IEEE 802.11b/g/n WLAN
standard.
Figure 3 illustrate the signal strength performance of the
wireless network for different standards. The figure shows
that the signal strength exponentially decays as the wireless
client move further away from the access point. This
behavior will influence the quality of the voice of the VoIP
system. The experiment shows that 802.11b has better
signal strength even though the signal strength has similar

Based on the analysis; jitter, packet loss, MOS and RFactor are related to each other, which prove the
relationship between the entire elements in the performance
of VoIP especially in wireless environment.
IV. CONCLUSION
VoIP over IEEE 802.11 has a lot to offer. Whether
small or large organizations, the importance of VoIP is very
significant. Many organizations have start using VoIP as
main communication between employees. The real
advantages of VoIP over wireless include mobility and
cost. In the world full of competition, VoIP gave slight
advantages to organization that are using it.
In this study, the result indicates that there are
differences in the performance of VoIP using different
wireless standard. This means that different wireless
standard will show different quality of VoIP performance.
Several factors have to be considered in using VoIP such as
voice quality impairment, the medium used and
environment involve in the implementation. Other factors
include the distance between the access point and VoIP
client, and the interference from other 2.4GHz device. All
of these factors have significant impact on the performance
of VoIP on IEEE 802.11 standard.
There`s a lot of factor to be consider in implementing
VoIP over 802.11b/g/n. In order to obtain the best quality
of VoIP system, VoIP parameter such as delay, jitter and
packet loss has to be put into consideration and the
parameter must be at the acceptable value. In order to
achieve that, the access point must be installed in
recommended area. Based on the result, the range between
VoIP client and Access Point (AP) must not exceed 65
meter to produce better call quality.
